The M Factor - Tom Maddocks

Forget Simon Cowell...there's an opportunity for every business leader to have the real 'M' Factor and we have just the book to show you how...

It's not every day an ex-BBC presenter and Media Training expert shares his secrets' in a book, and very rarely does Sir Stuart Rose, former Chairman and CEO of Marks and Spencer comment: " If you want to understand how to get the media on-side, in good times or bad this book is a good place to start".

Consumers are on the move and eager to engage with brands that provide seamless interactions across channels and devices, but often the experience they encounter is fragmented. Successful marketers realize the buyer journey must be better integrated, but as channels continue to proliferate, it’s challenging to get the full picture of what the customer experience looks like.

Join IBM Mobile Engagement Leader Josh Rochlin as he shares tips and insights marketers can use to deliver an improved mobile experience and better incorporate mobile into their overall digital marketing efforts. Learn how to:

More effectively capture mobile behaviors, preferences and sentiment
Deliver integrated mobile experiences at every touch point
Engage your customers in the moment with contextually relevant interactions
Use the data you’ve captured to enrich the customer experience across channels
Influence intent in new ways in a world of interconnected devices

Prospective customers are more difficult to entice than ever, and retaining them is equally challenging. With contacts increasingly seeking a seamless experience across a company’s call centre, emails, website and mobile channels, marketers can step up to help exceed prospect and customer expectations, and even achieve higher lead-to-sale conversion and retention rates.

•Determine the key stages in the customer journey

The session will explore how we can optimise every stage of our digital marketing to give the best experience to users across a range of mobile devices. As well as providing a range of tools and techniques that attendees will be able to take away and use straight away, Daniel will also explore what the future of Mobile holds for us.
